On Jan 31 I posited a great day we had digging when I found half of a CS reef buckle. Since then the weather has been real cold and we have had a good bit of snow. It has keep me up nights thinking about the other half of that buckle. We went back twice to try to find it , but both times the ground was froze solid and we could not dig at that spot. Finally last Sunday I got there for about an hr and a 1/2 and found several bullets but no buckle. I thought then that it was probably not there Today it was calling for mid 60s and had rained yesterday. Conditions were rite so we made plans to go. I put the large coil back on my AT pro for maximum depth, new batteries, and was all bizz. We got there at 8:00 am and the first 2 signals were junk. (1 pc of wire, 1 nail.) Then I got a good solid hit and dug the hole. I about to crap my paints when I seen the side of that tongue. My two friends and I had a great day. We all found bullets and one found half a spur, and the other found a CS block A button. Later in the day I found the sword hook off of the belt about 3 feet from the tongue . Sorry for rambling on but this is better than any buzz you can buy!! Thanks for letting me share this great day with you. I will probably never top it!!!

Thanks guys. It was a hell of an experience to hook those two buckles back together. Almost spiritual. They had been 10 yards apart for 150 years. Don't get any cooler than that!!!
